Ah this is good , so it can be controlled via hiby apps and the output to mojo are digital right?
But can't find one in my country. Is the v1a can do the same? Thanks
Yes, it can be controlled from Android/IOS devices with Hiby Link. Yes, outputs are digital. Two possibilities USB-C or coaxial. Tempotec V1a differs by also having an analog part, dac/amp section, but only one digital out USB-C. Otherwise they are the same size, weight and everything else. V1a is a little more expensive.

If you are looking for simple portable transport and can live without streaming, dual sd card slots and mobile app to control it take a look at xDuoo X10T II Turntable. It also has internal EQ.
+1!

You and a friend can listen together if you have the same IEMs or headphones... to a point.

Hey, wait a minute ... Are you saying that the two headphone outputs of the Mojo must or like to see the same load, the same impedance, to work properly with two headphones attached at the same time listening to the same source? Never thought about that. Manual implies nothing in that direction. One 30 Ohm IEM in one output, one 600 Ohm headphone in the other; fine and egal? Perhaps you are just talking about the difference in volume levels that will appear.

Could someone tell me how dts-hd and truehd work with the Chord Mojo in Jriver Player or MPC-BE (or in general)? This would be over optical or USB but I'm using optical at the moment. Am I getting the full bandwidth in PCM over 2 channel? Do I need to switch to USB? Thanks!

It doesn’t work, those are multi-channel audio formats. Your player is down mixing to 2.0

I'm confused, I read somewhere that you can hear lossless from optical as long as it's PCM and 2.0 channels. Isn't that what Jriver/MPC-BE is doing? Turning the 7.1 to 2 channels according to my software (with JRSS Mixing ON)? I can hear these formats fine in my headphones, what's it playing at?

I have no idea what the software on your end is doing to the PCM file to down mix, all I can tell you is that the Chord Mojo can only output stereo audio. Maybe if the file you are playing has a 2.0 track you could select that to receive the lossless PCM?

Do you know what software/setup I can use to get the best audio quality from a chord and dts-ma/true hd sound file maybe? How do people normally listen to these formats with their Chords for best quality?

I don’t see 2 channels for this (My test movie), just 7.1. Am I missing something?

I have a rip of the same disc and there are two stereo tracks.
